Before The Bachelor, Caelynn Was Killing It as Miss North Carolina — See the Photos!

Before she was on The Bachelor, Caelynn Miller-Keyes was taking the Miss USA stage by storm! The 23-year-old Virginia native was crowned Miss North Carolina in 2018 and was the first runner-up to Miss USA that same year, which actually explains a lot. In addition to being gorgeous, Miller-Keyes is outspoken and stands up for what she believes in. Most recently, we saw her defend fellow contestant Cassie Randolph after the two were accused of being on The Bachelor for the wrong reasons. As the end of season 23 draws closer, look back at Miller-Keyes's life as a beauty queen.
